DATE OF GRANT:

 

 

 

 

 

  

NUMBER OF DEFERRED STOCK UNITS:

1. Grant of Deferred Stock Unit Award . Wyeth, a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), pursuant to its 2008 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan (the “ Plan ”), hereby grants the Grantee the number of Deferred Stock Units specified above (the “ Deferred Stock Unit Award ”). Each Deferred Stock Unit shall represent the right to receive one share of Stock subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, as well as all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, all of which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and provisions of the Plan and the provisions of this Deferred Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “ Agreement ”), the Plan shall govern and control.

2. Vesting Schedule . Subject to the Grantee’s continued Board Membership through the applicable vesting date, the Deferred Stock Unit Award shall become fully vested on the date that is twelve (12) months and thirty (30) days following the Date of Grant; provided , however , that no portion of the Deferred Stock Unit Award shall become vested prior to the date upon which the Grantee has completed two years of continuous Board Membership following the Grantee’s election to the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to applicable laws, the Deferred Stock Unit Award set forth in this Agreement shall become immediately vested upon the occurrence of a Change in Control solely to the extent provided in Section 13 hereof.

3. Accelerated Vesting and Forfeiture of Deferred Stock Unit Award Upon Termination of Board Membership . In the event that the Grantee dies or incurs a Termination of Board Membership on account of the Grantee’s Mandatory Retirement, and if the Grantee has completed at least two years of continuous Board Membership, all unvested Deferred Stock Units granted under this Agreement and held by the Grantee as of such termination date shall immediately become fully vested. In the event that the Grantee incurs a Termination of Board Membership for any other reason, all unvested Deferred Stock Units granted under this Agreement and held by the Grantee as of such termination date shall immediately expire and be forfeited without further consideration to the Grantee.

4. Payment Election . No later than thirty (30) days following the Date of Grant, the Grantee shall make an Initial Election by filing with the Company an initial Payment Election Form, in a form provided by the Company, indicating whether the payment of the Deferred Stock Unit Award, if vested, upon the Grantee’s death or Termination of Board


Membership is to be made in a lump sum or in a series of 2 to 10 substantially equal annual installments and the time of payment. If the Grantee fails to file a timely Payment Election Form or makes a payment election that is invalid or not otherwise permitted by the Plan, the Deferred Stock Unit Award, by default, shall be distributed, to the extent then vested, in a lump sum on the first day of the month following the death or Termination of Board Membership of the Grantee (the “ Default Election ”). The Initial Election (or the Default Election, if applicable) shall be a standing election and shall apply to the Deferred Stock Unit Award granted under this Agreement and, unless such standing election is modified, to all of the Grantee’s subsequent Deferred Stock Unit Awards. The Grantee may elect to change the time and form of payment for any future Deferred Stock Unit Award by filing with the Company a Payment Election Modification Form, in a form provided by the Company, with the Company. A Payment Election Modification Form must (i) be in accordance with the Plan, and (ii) be made in writing and filed no later than December 31, or such earlier date prescribed by the Committee, in the calendar year prior to the calendar year in which the Deferred Stock Unit Award with respect to which the modification shall be effective is granted. Any such Payment Election Modification Form shall apply to all of the Grantee’s Deferred Stock Unit Awards granted in calendar years subsequent to the filing of such election, unless and until a new Payment Election Modification Form is filed with the Company. An Initial Election pursuant to this Section 4 shall be in accordance with the Applicable Transition Relief and shall not apply if the Deferred Stock Unit Award would otherwise be distributable in the calendar year in which the election is made. An election pursuant to this Section 4 shall become irrevocable on the last permissible date for making such election but may be changed at any time before such date. “Applicable Transition Relief” means the following transition guidance, as applicable, with respect to the application of Section 409A: (i) I.R.S. Notice 2005-1, I.R.B. 274 (published as modified on January 6, 2005), (ii) Section XI.C. of the preamble to the proposed Treasury Regulations under Section 409A (70 F.R. 57930; October 4, 2005), (iii) I.R.S. Notice 2006-79, I.R.B. 2006-43 and (iv) I.R.S. Notice 2007-86, I.R.B. 2007-46.

5. Deferred Unit Account. On the Date of Grant, the Company shall establish a Deferred Unit Account for the Grantee and shall credit such newly established Deferred Unit Account with the number of Deferred Stock Units attributable to the Deferred Stock Unit Award.

6. Contribution of Stock to Trust . On the Date of Grant, the Company shall contribute to the Trust for the benefit of the Grantee a number of shares of Stock equal to the number of Deferred Stock Units granted to the Grantee pursuant to the Deferred Stock Unit Award. The Company shall instruct the Trustee to establish a Deferred Stock Account for the Grantee and allocate the number of shares of Stock attributable to the Deferred Stock Unit Award to such newly established Deferred Stock Account. Stock held in the Deferred Stock Account (including, without limitation, Dividend Equivalents) shall be subject to vesting to the same extent that the Deferred Stock Unit Award is subject to vesting. Upon forfeiture of all or a portion of the Deferred Stock Unit Award as provided in Section 3 above, the corresponding number of shares of Stock held in the Deferred Stock Account shall be forfeited and returned to the Company.

7. Dividend Equivalents . The Company shall withhold cash dividends payable on the shares of Stock held in the Trust and, on each
